DEERASSIC PARK EDUCATION CENTER
The Mission…
Kicking Bear One - on - One is a nationwide mentoring program developed by world renowned bow hunter, Ray Howell. It encourages our sportsmen and women to get involved with today’s youth by becoming mentors. The campouts and shoots are a great way to introduce our youth to the outdoors and the sport of archery. Many of these children helped in the past would have never had the opportunity to experience the outdoors and the fantastic sport of archery had it not been for their mentors. By encouraging others to reach outside their homes and become mentors, we can help break the cycle and put dreams in these kids’ hearts that will change not only their lives, but their families’ lives to come.
The Event…
